New York progressive instrumental metallers Behold The Arctopus are back and will release their second full-length album, Horrorscension, on October 23rd via Black Market Activities. The album marks the first release from the band since 2007's Skullgrid. The first track off Horrorscension, "Disintegore," can be streamed at Behold The Arctopus' official Bandcamp page.

Horrorscension was recorded, mixed and mastered by band guitarist Colin Marston at his studio, The Thousand Caves, in Queens, New York. The album cover, created by Terry Grow, and tracklist can be viewed below.

You may have noticed the ellipsis (...) is missing from the band's name. That's no accident. Behold The Arctopus has officially dropped the punctuation from its name marking a new era for the band with a slightly new lineup featuring Marston, guitarist Mike Lerner and new drummer Weasel Walter.
